Splash Showcase: Dangerous Song

What

Come and join us in Victoria Square for this unique event.

'Dangerous Song' - Blue is a one hour film of stunning underwater cinematography and an exquisite Live soundtrack performed by Linsey Pollak and Lizzie O'Keefe using the sounds of endangered species and Lizzie’s amazing voice.

The one hour performance is a song for the planet - an inter-species choral work, and they’re singing for their lives! If their calls don’t affect you then nothing will.

Linsey Pollak plays a midi wind instrument where breath, lip pressure and fingering control the performance of animal call samples. He uses Live-looping technology to instantaneously record layers of music as he plays. Lizzie O’Keefe joins him, weaving her voice in and out of the musical landscape of animal sounds in a series of original “songs”. This collaboration takes us to a world of sound where the human and the animal combine into a sort of sonic morphing.

This sonic world is mirrored by the projection of a huge variety of amazing underwater moving images filmed by renowned and celebrated underwater cinematographer David Hannan.
